Learning together to create more inclusive classrooms 💚🤟
Last night, our Footprints Sunnybank team took part in a professional development workshop with Amy from Mini Auslan, undertaking Deafness Awareness Training.
It was a really engaging evening, with real-life scenarios, discussion and role play helping our educators better understand some of the experiences deaf children and adults may face when communication and everyday practices aren’t inclusive.
For some of our team, it was a valuable refresher. For others, it was an opportunity to learn something completely new. Most importantly, it gave us all a chance to think about the small things we can do differently to make our classrooms and our centre more welcoming and inclusive.
A big thank you to Amy from Mini Auslan for joining us and sharing her knowledge with the team. 💚
